For further comprehension of the inven- In Fig. 2 a modification of'the invention tion and of the objects and advantages therehas been disclosed in which the bottle of of, reference will be had to the following deliquid corn cure 10 is engaged with its neck 7 scription and accompanying drawing and to end into the carton 11. The head of the 45 the appended claims, in which the various bottle holds the pads of corn cure 12 in place.

In Fig. 3 another arrangement of the package has been disclosed in which the carton is made from sections 13 and 14; and is engaged on opposite ends of the bottle 10 so that the bottle is completely covered. A band 15 is secured over the contacting ends of the carton section. This band is formed with perforations 16 so that it may readily be removed. Within one of the carton sections a plurality of corn cure pads 12 are located.

In Figs. 4:, 5 and 8, another embodiment of the invention has been disclosed in which means is provided for moving the corn cure pads 12 into view when the bottle of corn cure 10 is taken from the carton 11. This means comprises a spring 18 acting between the closed end of the carton and the corn cure pads, normally tending to urge them towards the open end of the carton. The bottle. 10 is formed with proturberances 19 on its sides which are adapted to engage beneath spring clips 20 attached upon the sides of the carton. The edges of the open end of the carton are turned inwards as indicated by reference numeral 21 so as to hide the spring 20 from View.

In Fig. 4 the bottle is shown engaged within the carton with the springs 20 holding it against the ejecting action of the spring 18. hen the bottle 10 is manually removed from the carton the spring 18 will force the pads of corn cure 12 to the open end of the carton whereupon the uppermost one may be removed for use. The intention is that when the corn cure pad is exposed in the open end of the carton it will suggest its use.

In Fig. 6 a modification of the arrangement shown in Fig. 4 has been disclosed wherein the bottle 10 is placed with its head first into the carton. In other respects this form of the invention is identical to the previous form. Like parts may be recognized by corresponding reference numerals.

Fig. 7 illustrates a detail of one of the pads. This pad consists of a cardboard base 22 upon which a sheet of gauze 23 is attached. A medicated pad 24; is mounted upon the sheet 23. To use the pad it is necessary to tear it from the sheet 23 and apply it.

In Fig. 9 another modification of the invention has been disclosed in which the carton is made from sections 13 and 14 held together by a band 15. The carton section 14 has its bottom end bent inwards at 25 and holds a roll of adhesive tape 26 within a compartment in this section. A transverse partition 27 divides off this compartment. Pads of corn cure 12 are mounted within the section 13 of the carton and a spring 18 normally tends to urge the pads outwards. Leaf springs 20 are attached upon the carton section 13 for the purpose of engaging protuberances 19 upon the bot-tle 10 and for engaging the edges of the corn cure pads so as to prevent their complete ejection by the spring 18.

While I have shown and described the preferred embodiment of my invention, it is to be understood that I do not limit myself to the precise construction herein disclosed and the right is reserved to all changes and modifications coming within the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to protect by Letters Patent of the United States is as follows 1. A corn cure package, comprising a bottle of liquid corn cure for initial application upon ones corns or the like, pads of corn cure for subsequent application, a carton with an open end engaging upon one end of said bottle and said pads being located between the bottle and the closed end of said carton, and means forbringing the pads to the open end of the carton upon removal of the bottle.

2. A corn cure package, comprising a carton open at one end, a bottle of corn cure engaged in the open end, pads of corn cure within the carton and against the bottle, and means for resiliently urging the pads towards the open end upon removal of the bottle, comprising a spring interposed between the pads and the closed end of the carton, and means for restraining complete ejection of the pads upon reaching the opened end of the carton.

3. In a corn cure package, a carton open at one end, pads of corn cure within the carton, means for resiliently urging the pads towards the open end of the carton, a bottle in the open end of the carton and holding the pads at the closed end of the carton, and means for holding the bottle within the carton and for restraining complete ejection of the pads upon reaching the open end of the carton.

4. In a corn cure package, a carton open at one end, pads of corn cure within the carton, means for resiliently urging the pads towards the open end of the carton, a bottle in the open end of the carton and holding the pads at the closed end of the carton, and means for holding the bottle within the carton and for restraining complete ejection of the pads upon reaching the open end of the carton, comprising spring clips fixed at the open end of the carton and engageable with protuberances on the bottle and engageable with the pads.

5. In a corn cure package, a carton open at one end, pads of corn cure within the carton, means for resiliently urging the pads towards the open end of the carton, a bottle in the open end of the carton and holding the pads at the closed end of the carton, and means for holding the bottle within the carton and for restraining complete ejection of the pads upon reaching the open end of the carton, comprising spring clips fixed at the open end of the carton and engageable with protuberances n the bottle andengageable with the pads, said spring clips being cov-' ered by rolled clips being covered by rolled edges on the open end of the carton so that the spring clips are not visible from the outside.

In testimony whereof I have aflixed my signature.
